So PS just released that they are increasing the rake of micro stakes from 2NL to 10NL to a 5% cap.

Thinking of moving my bankroll somewhere else, possibly 888.

( I know rake is high there too but the pool is soft)

Curious to know what site you guys recommend and are playing on. I am in the UK

888 is a good alternative. The pool is not big, but you can always find a game if you play micros.

So rake tend to converge to the same percentage on 888, pokerstars and GG.

In that case, which of these has the best rakeback program for cash game player in micros? Someone who plays less than 100k hands by year per example.

When is this happening? Their site still shows the old structure for these limits:

I see that these have actually changed now

So no changes to 25nl or 50nl but increasingly worse changes as you go below that.

This is how this affects various pot sizes:

The micros were always a rake trap but at least PS used give 2nl and 5nl a bit of a reprieve. No longer.

2nl-5nl are all equally bad now - a flat 5% rake

For the sake of comparison here is the structure at 25nl and 50nl:
